Liu Zhang believes that only the blood of countless people can make the Han people truly remember the previous heroes and remember the broken mountains and rivers.

Liu Zhang's detention of so many prisoners and all of them to Beijing was also for this purpose. Because it is too easy for the generations to forget.

All the emperors ascended the throne in peace, but Liu Zhang didn't mind stepping through the corpse mountain and the sea of blood to the emperor.

Huang Quan sideways saw the children of the Huang family escorted in front, his eyelids twitched slightly, and at this time, Liu Zhang had already led people down the stone ladder and stopped when he walked to Huang Quan's side.

"Gong Heng, the children of the Huang family who were beheaded this time, more than 100 people, quite a lot, compared to the Huang family of thousands of people, there are also a lot, and they are all core children, almost all the children of the Huang family in officialdom and the main talents in business are listed, after the execution, the Huang family will be hit hard.

Lord Huang, do you complain about this king? ”

"Huang Quan, don't dare." Huang Quan bowed, but the words he said were very difficult.

Liu Zhang nodded slightly, walked to the execution ground, and came to the core figures of several traditional clans, Sima Hui, Pang Degong, Zhuge Ci, and Lu Su were all listed.

"Qushui Pavilion, save the spring breeze and return to the moon.

Fish from the river, happy with the destiny of heaven.

The boat travels against the current, and the work is hard at all.

Digging the river is easy to do, and it is often self-abandoned. ”

With a hint of amazement, Liu Zhang slowly said four words that seemed to be lyrics, and in front of several people, Zhuge Ci heard Liu Zhang's words, and his old face couldn't help but blush.

This poem was sung when Zhuge Ci and Sima Hui played chess as an introduction to persuade Liu Zhang to adapt to the situation after Liu Zhang took Jiangling and when he was in Jiangjinkou.

This word. It begins with a curved flow of water. Regardless of the fish from the river. Sailing against the current, or digging rivers and changing roads, is just saying that we must adapt to the times, and if we do not conform to the times, we can only bring about our own destruction.

Adapting to the times is the choice of countless people, if a person really wants to succeed, go against the sky. and shall be covered with bruises.

This is an axiom.

So when Zhuge Ci sang this paragraph, with high spirits, with confidence, and with the ease of seeing through everything, when Liu Zhang heard it, he even felt that he heard Zhuge Ci's "haha" laughter.

"Knowing that you can't do it, it's tiring to you, but there are too many people in this world who can't see this, and you always have to do it when you encounter something, just like the old man in this chess game. Until the moment of final defeat, he will not be willing to abandon his son. ”

This is the original words of Zhuge Ci and Sima Hui who advised Liu Zhang not to make mistakes.

"Liu Zhang. Are you here just to laugh at us? Do you think that now that you have ascended the throne, we should be ashamed of ourselves? Sima Hui on the side said loudly.

To be honest, Sima Hui and Pang Degong may be a little afraid when they face death, but that's because they never thought that they would die under the butcher's knife, that is normal fear.

After a long time, they will no longer be afraid of death, all they care about is their own family, and the life and death of individuals is too insignificant for the survival of the family.

Now this situation is no longer the situation of the Jiangzhou massacre at the beginning, the family will inevitably be destroyed, and Sima Hui will have no scruples.

Liu Zhang glanced at Sima Hui, for many families who are not afraid of death, Liu Zhang still feels very admirable, especially after the Han Dynasty, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, there are fewer and fewer aspiring scholars, and more and more people are afraid of death.

Liu Zhang's words to Sima Hui did not fluctuate at all, but sat down on the stone slab in front of Sima Hui and the others.

"I'm not here to mock you, but to say goodbye to an era."

"Say goodbye to an era?" Lu Su said loudly.

Liu Zhang nodded slightly: "I have never met Pang Degong, Sima Hui and Zhuge Ci have met once, Lu Zijing is very familiar with the king, but unfortunately when they meet, they also have one thing in their mouths and one in their hearts."

Now I can finally say some honest words, and it can be regarded as a ride for you.

I, Liu Zhang, have no grievances with you, and I am not the devil who loves to kill in your mouth, I don't take pleasure in killing, why should I have trouble with you?

In fact, the Han clan, in the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, has made great contributions to the Han Dynasty, the first family is the backbone of the Han Dynasty, but also the backbone of the Chinese nation, countless people with lofty ideals are from this group.

Relatively speaking, among the poor and the people, there are fewer people who speak upright.

All your behaviors, Sima Hui Zhuge Ci Pang Degong is looking for outstanding sons in the family, looking for spokesmen for the princes, Lu Zijing donated money and food to the Jiangdong Army, and firmly stood on the side of the Lord and the faction, not for yourself, but for the family.

With the family as the center, all the children of the family can give everything, and this is your time.

Perhaps, after your time has passed, it may be difficult to find a group of people like you in the future history, and it may be difficult to find those righteous men among your people who are not afraid of life and death for their loyalty.

You are a great time, and because of this, I feel the need to see you off. ”

"It turns out that the cruel King of Shu has such a rational side in his heart, I really didn't see it before, in this case, why did you slaughter us?

Do you want an era where there is no loyalty, children who do not care about their families, and who are selfish? ”

Pang Degong said and looked at the children of the Huang family who were waiting to be beheaded, some were still crying, some were shouting for Huang Quan to save his life, and there were those frightened and colorless officials of the Sichuan Army who were waiting to be beheaded.

"You are brutal, but you are also above board, and you have executed these people with us, so that we can see how ugly the lower ranks of your Sichuan army are.

But doesn't that prove you wrong?

King Shu, I can give you a positive word, if it was a former big man, an ordinary case, it would never be possible to implicate so many officials, they are not so short-sighted.

And if it weren't for the suppression of the traditional clans, the issuance of land orders, and the development of business, this case would not have happened at all.

The mercenary of businessmen, but they can obtain a high status, will inevitably lead to the moral decline of the whole society, is it possible that with the wisdom of the King of Shu, can he not see this?

Could it be that the king of Shu slaughtered us and promulgated a new policy, just to appear a society in which officials are corrupt, businessmen are mercenary, and the people are not virtuous? ”

"I don't want to, but it's the trend."

"Messing around." Sima Hui said.

Liu Zhang smiled: "Have you ever seen a creature in the water?" The white jellyfish is a more powerful carnivorous creature, and its power lies in the water bladder that provides energy to the body, the larger the water bladder, the stronger the combat effectiveness of this jellyfish.

But do you know how it ended up dying? The final way for every white jellyfish to die is basically the rupture of the water bladder. ”

"How is it possible, since it's about to break, can't you feel it? Why does it still absorb water? Doesn't it know how to stop? Pang Degong said.

"yes, why does it still absorb water? Because it really doesn't know how to stop. Liu Zhang said: "Don't you think that the Han family is also like this?

The head of each generation of your family strives to strengthen the family, and if you do not strengthen the family, you are the sinner of the family, and if you let the family go backwards, you are the sinner of the sinners.

You're the white jellyfish that suck water.

If you just absorb water, forget it, the most important thing is that you still have to attack others, a family to maintain and expand, the first is the land, the second is the official position.

As your family grows bigger, you have more and more land, and you occupy more and more official positions, and when you can't grow stronger, you still have the responsibility to grow.

You have only one choice, and that is land annexation and monopolizing officialdom, otherwise your family will not be able to maintain it at all.

However, the Han Dynasty is so big, there is so much land, and there are so many official positions, you keep absorbing water, what do you want the people to do? Even if it weren't for me Liu Zhang, your water bladder would eventually burst, do you understand? ”

Sima Hui, Pang Degong, Zhuge Ci, Lu Su and others all calmed down, they hadn't thought about this before, because they firmly felt that what they were doing was right.

Yes, what's wrong with growing the family?

Until now, when it came to this moment when they had to think calmly, and at the same time, Liu Zhang's calm voice also made them begin to reflect, and they suddenly found that perhaps the extinction of the world was almost inevitable.

It's just that they don't know that in history, the water bladder of the clan was ruptured, which led to a great disaster, and the entire Three Kingdoms hegemony, including the disputes of the princes in the early stage, was basically the dispute of the clan, and almost every prince had the shadow of the clan behind him.

Perhaps, during the Five Hu Rebellion, the Shi clan made great efforts to continue the Han nation, and there was even a paper to kill Hu from the King of Martial Mourning, but that was only because the power of the Han Dynasty was basically in the hands of the Shi clan.

The Han clan hated the Hu people, they had this heart, and at the same time they had this power, so they became the main force to resist the Hu people.

But when the Wuhu were in turmoil, the Shi clan had already controlled the absolute power, so if they didn't stand up against the Wuhu, who could it be? Is it a poor door? The people? They don't have the same appeal for money, food, land, and official positions, so what else can they do except be soldiers who are warlords of the world?

However, it was precisely because of the infinite expansion of the clan that the vitality of the Han Dynasty disappeared. They led to this result, and they can't be said innocent because they worked hard to clean up the mess.

Not to mention that they failed to clean up this mess.

Sima Hui and the others didn't say anything, Liu Zhang came here, it wasn't Sima Hui who said, to be proud, Liu Zhang didn't have that idea, Liu Zhang really felt that the culture of the Han Dynasty had many essences, and it was not inherited after the Tang and Song dynasties.

And these essences are obviously derived from the world, and with this, Liu Zhang feels that he is worth coming here.

Liu Zhang also wants to tell himself that the era he overthrew is not useless, and the era he is about to uphold is not as good as this era, then he is a sinner. (To be continued......)
